Do these 5 Things Before Sleeping

Do these 5 Things Before Sleeping

Do you wake up in a bad mood for no apparent reason? Is this happening to you, often? According to Sadhguru, a renown spiritual master, there are 5 things you need to do before sleeping to start each and every day with a positive outlook. How do we achieve this? With the help of a 5 step sleeping routine to help re-frame our subconscious mind.

Our subconscious mind works throughout the day when we are both awake and asleep but takes over entirely when we sleep. Free from interference or interruption of everyday life distractions, at night our subconscious mind has almost all the resources of our brain at its disposal. Our subconscious mind dominates a large part of our lives, so how do we make it work in our favour?

Our subconscious minds are amazing in how they shape our thoughts and feelings. If you wake up in the morning in a very bad mood, it means you are incubating negative emotions and thoughts during the night efficiently. The way we sleep can sometimes cause psychological and physiological problems over a period of time. Sadhguru shares a few simple things that we can do to eliminate negative ramifications.

Sadhguru says; “Before you go to sleep, there are certain things you need to take care of”.  He proposes a daily ritual to dispel negative mental residues that accumulate over the course of the day.

1. Eat 3-4 hours before going to bed.

2. Take a shower

3. Light an organic oil lamp

4. Chant or practice Yogic Processes 

5. Remind yourself: “ I am not this body, I am not this mind”

Watch the video below that details the 5 things you need to do before sleeping.

Sleep is important to our survival and our quality of life. If we don’t get sleep, we don’t function on a number of levels the way we should. Everything from learning to your mood to your risk of getting sick and becoming obese can get thrown off-kilter.
